Here's a nice little dillemma.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/theeditors/2009/11/changing_headlines.html

BBC News headlines go from 33 characters (because of Ceefax) to 66

One the one hand, king of usability Jacob Neilson has said the BBC News
headlines are the "world's best"

On the other, Google likes lots of relevant keywords, the higher the
"reading score" the better in fact.

It's not like BBC News comes bottom of any Google search, is it?

My question - which is more important, SEO or usability?
